Samba Version 1.9.18p8 on Linux
I'm new at this so pls bare with me :)
i've got samba up and running (i can print) but am having problems
getting file sharing properly. I have some directories on "SERVER" that
i want to share to win95 machines.
My smb.conf looks like this:
---------------------------------------
[global]
workgroup = DOMAIN
server string = "Samba Server"
local master = no
debug level = 3
[shared]
path = /home/shared
create mode = 0755
writeable = yes
guest ok = yes
read only = no
public = true
[homes]
public = true
hide dot files = yes
read only = no
browseable = yes
create mode = 0755
writeable = yes
--------------------------------
/home/shared is owned by "software" and the mode is 755 on it. I want
to
be able to have anyone be able to write to it. I am able to mount
\\server\shared but am not able to write to it as any user. I realize
that i'm duplicating things by havine "guest ok", "read only", and
"writeable" but i can't see why any one of those won't work.
also on the win95 machine, i'm logged in as "pac" and it shows me
\\server\pac (my home directory /home/pac on server) but i don't see any
files nor can i create any...
any help appreciated!
thanks
